Set reading goals in Books on iPod touch
The Books app helps you keep track of how many minutes you read every day, and how many books and audiobooks you finish each year. You can customize your goals to spend more time reading, set new reading streaks, and share your achievements with friends.
![The Reading Goals section in Reading Now. The reading counter shows that 6 minutes of a 10-minute goal have been completed. Below the counter is a Keep Reading button, and circles that show the days of the week, Sunday through Saturday. The circle for Tuesday contains a blue outline that shows the progress for that day.](https://help.apple.com/assets/6222428998C2CE34C75A5252/6222428C98C2CE34C75A527C/en_US/3b18563d0bc3d4857247659ba616b203.png)
